They are kind of made for mono, I guess! I see them quite often around here. There has been a small military base here for many years, so they might have come from there after the war.

Aw, that's too bad, I suppose they were recycled for the metal. I'm sure that many have met that fate in the US, but my particular area still has a lot of them. Makes a sturdy, cheap farm building.

Similar to Nissen Huts, as has been mentioned above - common in the UK during WWII. They were still commonly seen when I was a child and (like Rosa) I remember them well.

Thanks to Mr. Nissen's generosity, we had our Quonset huts. For some reason, there are a lot of them in and around Klamath Falls, some are in my gallery.
